Event Overview
When 50% of our children are being bitten by a dog by the time they are 12 years old and 77% of bites come from their family or a friend’s dog – that’s an opportunity for education that anyone who loves kids or dogs simply cannot ignore. This program helps kids learn how to act around ALL of the dogs they see in their lives whether their families own one or not. The "I Speak Doggie" program is designed especially for preschool-aged kids. The message is simple, fun and based on a music video that will have the kids singing about dog safety long after the program ends.
3 - 6 year olds. An adult guardian must be present.
